🇻🇪🇻🇪❌🇺🇸 — 🇻🇪 The dictator of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, urged the peoples to rise up “against imperialism” and “its attempt to bring a war” to the Latin American and Caribbean region

“We must cultivate the permanent awareness and rebelliousness of the peoples. Of everyone. If we all rise up against the empire of evil and the Nazis, who could stand against us? […].

The first thing Nazifascism did when it emerged in Europe, the first thing Adolf Hitler did, was to begin mocking the founding pacts of international law and start believing and claiming the preeminence of his power above international law, based on the invocation of an alleged ‘international legal exceptionalism.’”

➡️ As crazy as the idea of a Shanghai secession from a Post-Communist China might be, the party is known within the Chinese social media — because it provokes both supporters of the Chinese Regime, anti-Communist Nationalists, constitutionalist liberals who consider them "too exclusionary," and apolitical Chinese netizens — as well within the niche e-separatist groups included in the PostRussia Forum of RAND Corporation
